Access Virus TI2 Set Up with Win 7 Pro

Hello, I've recently shifted from Mac to win 7. I'm trying miserably to re-setup my Virus TI2 with S1 Pro.

I don't really have an in depth understanding of Windows to troubleshoot it adequately and I need some kind soul to walk me through it.

If you could spare the time I'd really appreciate your help.

So far everything on Windows 7 and Studio One Pro works as expected. My Apollo interface is working properly. My UAD quad card works fully.

I can get my virus to make sounds if I draw them into S1, I just cant get S1 to hear the midi notes from the Virus.

So have I got my Virus set up wrong, in local mode or is there a hidden Windows midi function I don't know about?

Any guidance would be appreciated

I understand Studio One isn't officially qualified, however I have successfully been using them together for an age. I know others use it on Windows.

Hi Flabberbob, I failed to say I was connecting via the USB lead using the TI VST plug in. Sorry about that.

Do you think there is something in the virus I haven't set up? Something obvious because it seems to function fine, only the sending of midi notes from the keyboard doesn't seem to be making it into S1?

Its worth pointing out that the virus soft knobs communicate with the vst plug fine, I can alter parameters. Its just the keyboard isn't working.

Thanks for responding again.

I have it set up to receive midi via the synth. It is all wired up over usb. The Virus control just doesnt receive it.

I was wondering if there is a possiblity to set midi note velocity to zero so no matter how hard I touch the keys nothing is being sent. But I cant find anything like that.

Hi, yes to your questions. I did all of those.

I cannot fathom why all the knobs communicated with Virus Control but the keyboard didn't.

Ive had to pack it away to use an alternative.
